This is where Glory Bee stashes Apple Dumpling when she wants some downtime to read her email–in a corner tucked amidst the spilled hay in one of the barn stalls.
Not that she gets much downtime now. Baby’s raring to go. Dumpling is a-scampering, and guess who’s scampering after her?

Ha.

The comeuppance, it comes so soon!

(Notice how Glory Bee has finally had it and tells her, “It’s time for bed!”)

I can see it now…the only way you are going to have Apple Dumpling for supper is when she is seated in the place of honor…with a bib around her pretty neck!!!!
BTW…GB is going to be one of those overly protective moms.

That is a cute video. Our cows aren’t quite so protective – usually. LOL They do stash the babies away pretty good though. Ours are Black Angus/Limousine and can hide in dark places so well. Thanks for the smile this morning.

What a great way to start the day , such a beautiful sight , wish that was my view from the porch ! Brings back memories of my Grandparents farm which I cherish deeply. When you see that baby does your heart flutter ? I can almost see you smiling from ear to ear ! GB looks like a great mom & Dumpling…..precious !

Now that is just too funny! GB is just like a first time momma. She’ll have that baby fat run off in no time! Keep the videos coming please!! I need some good laughs right now. I think we can all use this. Thanks!

Suzanne I’d love to see some of the old videos (assuming there were some!) of GB and BP when GB was new. I loved watching her run around with her baby Such a sweet sweet sight. They remind me of big giant dogs, full of love for life and adventure and fun. Yay!

Suzanne I took a look at “Baby Cow the Movie” after watching Dumpling run rings around GB. I think I was struck most by how DIFFICULT it was to have cows at Stringtown Rising. Instead of a nice flat field next to a barn, you had to raise GB amid hills, tree roots, and lots of big stones. How much nicer for a baby cow to run safely around behind your new fences in your new pastures. Its going to be so much easier to get GB used to milking, handle the milk and take care of the animals in the snow, sleet, mud. So happy for you in your new farm.

My baby goat was killed last night by stray dogs so this morning was gruesome and sad for me. I just now had time to come see CITR and find this precious video. Thank you for putting a smile on my utterly crappy day.

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die."Keep reading our story....

This is an excellent recipe, and I made these this evening. Its not mentioned here explicitly, but I heated my oil to about 325 deg F before adding the hush puppies. I then fried them about 2 minutes before flipping them over for another 2 minutes until they were a proper brown color. The crispiness of these hush puppies are unmatched and I would recommend this recipe to anyone.Bobby Hill on Hush Puppy Heaven
